OK we are still trying to decide our new route. Anyone that's gone either of these routes please give us some input. So apparently 77 goes through Charlotte which from pppaaasstt (long time ago) experience will be congested .. So looking like 74 is our best route.

We will be hitting Norton, then Abington, then to wythville, then mt airy and what you said.. We had always gone 23 south and hit Kingsport, Asheville, Spartanburg, Columbia and that way .. But a friend had taken the 74 and said it was much shorter and besides that UK plays in Columbia the day we go down and that would be a major traffic deal LOL .. Not that we don't want to support our UK wildcats but we want to avoid the traffic. LOL
